Novel Bin
Chapter 446
James Ye pretended to search all afternoon. When he received a call from his father-in-law saying Auntie Han was coming over, he quickly drove home.
Mary Xiao also got a call from her dad. Although she was reluctant, she drove back home as well.
Linda Dong, upon hearing there would be guests at home, refused to come back for dinner no matter what.
Mary initially wanted her to accompany her to avoid the awkwardness, but Linda also felt awkward and used the excuse of working overtime to eat out alone.
Mary couldn't insist, so she told Christopher Xiao, "Dad, when your friend arrives, try not to bring the conversation around to me. I'm not in a great mood today and don't feel like talking much."
Christopher understood that his daughter coming home to have dinner with him and his old friend was already a big gesture, so he couldn't push her further.
He then said to James Ye, "Good son-in-law, you should talk more at the dinner table later and keep the atmosphere lively."
"Alright," James nodded awkwardly.
What do you think?
